Before Verity became a brave and
unbreakable spy she was Scots lass Julia Beaufort Stuart.
Fifteen year old Julia, Julie to
her friends made the mistake of coming home from her Swiss studies three days
early and ended up in hospital because of it. She can’t remember being bashed
over the head she’s just grateful to the McEwens, Euan and Ellen and their
fellow Travellers, who found her injured on the path to their camp site and got her to
hospital.
Returning to her grandfather’s
estate to recover, Julie begins to remember snippets of what happened to her.
She is keen to get to the bottom of the mystery because on the day she got hurt
a family employee vanished. She grows closer to the McEwens, experiencing
firsthand some of the prejudices they’ve become used to. Then a body is found in
the river and the Travellers look like an easy target to frame for murder. Julie
joins forces with the McEwens and her brother Jamie to find the real culprit
and save her new friends.
